4:55am.

Nothing. Central still have quite a number of people. Am I optimistic that It’s already too early in the morning for anything to kick off? I would assume that it will happen before work time, with plenty of time to spare for clean up. 5am probably would not be able to fit all that in, ready for the civil servants coming to work.

Will the students stay for another day? Is the government waiting for the outcome of the negotiation? Is there even room for any compromise. What will China give?

All us watchers wait. The students wait.

But sometimes the government will strike once everyone is relaxed. Maybe in a day or two.

But it will be at least nightfall tomorrow. The government said they want school to start. I doubt the will cause chaos in the day.
